Located near the Beaujoire stadium, The Smash Goal offers two padel courts. And if you feel like tasting something, there is the Italian restaurant Giorgio Ristorante. In a sumptuous setting, we savor their delicious pizza.
Carquefou
Dating from 2022, the site of The UrbanPadel in Carquefou is brand new and has six courts. In January 2024, the venue hosted a P2000 and last June, a P1000.

Passionate about soccer and tennis since I was a kid, I've been playing ping-pong for three years at a club in Nantes. More recently, I discovered padel! Basketball, rugby, golf, and motorsports: yet more new sports that I follow regularly. On the cultural side, since I love giving my opinion, I write film and video game reviews on my Instagram page, Silence ça Mix.
